cable car

If you’re thinking about visiting Dubrovnik next year, one of the must do activities is the city’s Cable Car, offering dramatic views of the stunning coastline from the top of Mount Srd. Dubrovnik’s famous cable car, a wonderful feat of modern engineering is back to its former glory, offering tourists the chance once again to experience some of the most spectacular views of Croatia’s ribbon coastline. Taking only four minutes to whisk you up to 405m above sea level, you’ll soon realise why the views from Mount Srd are so popular for it will simply leave you in awe. Take in the glistening Adriatic, the lush islands of Elaphiti and Lokrum and of course Dubrovnik and it’s Old Town.

Tickets can be bought from the lower station (King Petar Krešimir Street, opposite the fire station), costing 100 Kuna for an adult round-trip or 50 Kuna for children (4-12 years old). Alternatively, cheaper single trips can be purchased as it is possible to walk both up and down the mountain, but this is for the serious fit! The cable car is open all year round with departures on the hour and half past the hour from 9am and closes at 4pm in the winter, extending all the way through to midnight in June to August.
